Ekurhuleni Legal Head Advocate Kemi Behari testified at the Madlanga Commission that a disciplinary investigation into Ekurhuleni senior manager Mojapelo was abruptly closed despite evidence of misconduct.

The probe concerned over R100 million in municipal grants for events, which Behari said allegedly benefited celebrities TK Nciza and DJ Sbu Leope.

““All investigations have been blocked. And that is why now I’m facing repercussions because Nciza mentioned one thing,” Behari told the commission.

Behari explained he became involved in the labour matter concerning Mojapelo, then COO, under instructions from his HOD and the HR HOD, not the city manager.

“The only time I was involved in labour matters was when it dealt with a senior manager. Nciza had close ties to Mojapelo, which complicated efforts to pursue the investigation. Attempts to secure witnesses for the SIU report were unsuccessful,” he said.

According to Behari, TK Nciza applied pressure to prevent accountability.

“The only people we can call now are TK Nciza and Sbu Leope, because they’re the ones the evidence is pointing to as having benefited from this entire thing,” he said.

Behari said his HOD later pulled him aside and told him the matter had been settled, effectively halting the investigation.

Behari also addressed broader governance issues, including flawed public participation on special levies, which he said caused Ekurhuleni to lose around R200 million.

“You put in a special levy, then only when Tembisa’s uprising happened did you decide to go back. But your initial process of public participation was flawed,” he explained.

Behari said DJ Sbu and TK are being implicated at the Madlanga Commission for benefiting from Ekurhuleni corruption.

Behari was explaining why certain high-profile investigations seemed to hit a dead end just when things were getting heated.

At one stage Behari mentioned the case of a Senior Manager called Mojapelo, he claimed that a case against this manager was settled under extreme pressure.

Things got even more interesting when he mentioned that evidence pointed toward popular figures TK Nciza and Sbu Leope allegedly benefiting from certain situations.

However, Behari told the commission that as soon as he brought up the idea of calling them in to answer questions, his own Head of Department suddenly ended the case.

Behari is facing claims that he received a massive loyalty bonus of R600,000 to make sure a disciplinary case against a suspended Deputy Police Chief Julius Mkhwanazi didn’t go anywhere.
